Top 1. Q: When will iOS 8 launch and be available for iOS users?
A: So far, Apple only unveiled a preview of iOS 8's main features and the visual design. Developers can get their hands on iOS 8 right now, but everyone else has to wait a little over three months for the official release date, which will launch to the public some time in September or October (and most likely alongside the iPhone 6 or iPad 6).
Top2. Q: How to Upgrade to iOS 8?
A: After the iOS 8 is released to the public, your iPad or iPhone (or iPod touch) will alert you to upgrade to iOS 8 with a notification. Or you can go into your device's Settings > General > Software Update - if you're not on the latest version of iOS, you'll be offered the chance to update here.
Top3. Q: Which iOS Devices Will Be Able to Run iOS 8?
A: One of the sad bits of an iOS version update is that an old iPhone, iPad or iPod touch may not be able to harness all the new features, or run the new OS at all. While unveiling the new version od iOS, Apple also announced the compatibility of iOS 8.
- iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6s, iPhone SE(...and presumably iPhone 7 when it launches?)
- iPad 2, iPad 3, iPad 4, iPad Air (...and iPad 6 and/or iPad Pro when and if they launch)
- iPad mini 1 and iPad mini 2 with Retina display (...and iPad mini 3 when it launches)
- iPod touch 5G
Bear in mind, that the devices towards the lower ends of those sets will only get a partial share of the features in iOS 8. It's also possible that they will struggle with performance issues - the iPhone 4 was the oldest iPhone that could run iOS 7, and ran noticeably slowly compared to iOS 6.
